While scouting for bass I always keep a crappie rig in the boat. Had a tip from a friend that some were being caught so I decided to check it out. Only got to fish for them about two hours but caught some with the biggest being 2 pounds.I have always caught crappie around brush but these guys were siting on rock from 16ft to 28 ft. I'd pitch it out and hop it back.

WTG! Looks like a 3/16 jig head?Makes it easier to get down in deep water and to maintain contact.

But I gotta ask, why were you hunting ditch pickles in the first place! lol

haha... take it easy on him, he's in the middle of his conversion...probably not sure what he's feeling...lol

Honestly Crappie fishing was/is my first love.I was slip/barge fishing long before I got a boat and got sucked into the bass tournament trails.I'll never give up crappie fishing that bite is addicting.During the summer I actually take a break from bass and chase crappie. I will fish for anything that swims in the lake.I was using a 1/8th oz. head that I pour.
